Support for CBC - Edmonton Journal MIA

An estimated crowd of 50,000 people gathered outside the CBC studios in downtown Edmonton yesterday to show support for the locked out CBC workers. OK, so it wasn't 50,000 but it was a few hundred - enough to get some interest from the local media.

I looked in my Edmonton Journal this morning for coverage of this event. It was noticeably absent. Given the pro business/anti-union editorial the Journal published a couple of weeks ago regarding the Telus strike I guess one shouldn't be surprised.

Back in the old days the Journal used to cover news for news sake, even if it didn't support their editorial position. Not any more. What a pity.
